We’ve got a problem. How did this even start? I’m not entirely sure why I, a SAHM, need business cards and an XL size magnet (think: one that you would stick on the side of your car) to promote my business (do I even have business??), but it’s FREE!!! So I order. And then I […]
Movie Night
This is just fun. First of all, it is rare. Secondly, undoubtedly one or the other of us has been saving up about 16,000 important tasks (bill paying, diaper-code entering, blog-stalking, etc.) that we need to perform on the computer for when we actually get a chance to sit down. So generally at least one […]
Crafty Ladies
In general, they terrify me. I am very suspicious of anyone who has the time to not only buy scrapbooking tools and art supplies, but who actually has the time to use them. Moreover, anyone who delights in cutting out small shapes and securing them to corresponding pages with glitter glue forces me to question […]
The Slippery Slope of Sin and Other Bed Issues
So in a continuation of yesterday’s post about our dog (and I promise to get off the canine train soon), he is further spoiled by being allowed to sleep on our bed with us at night. When we first got Bailey, he was not allowed out of the basement. Then he wasn’t permitted past the […]
Your Dog is Your First Child
In much happier times… Before we had our human children, our dog, Bailey, was truly our child. Now that I’ve actually birthed a couple of my own, the dog has become, well…more of a dog. This does not mean we don’t love Bailey–it just means we may have less elaborate canine birthday parties and less […]
When The Corelle Breaks…or not?
My totally amazing Christmas gift this year from my dad was a set of Corelle dishes. Our trusty old set that had seen us through 10.5 yrs. of marriage was, to put it politely, significantly lacking. Many pieces had broken and most of the rest were cracked or chipped. It was very handy to have […]
The Dull Lull
Usually, I always feel sort of a post-holiday low. All the fun and excitement is past. But then I saw this picture, and suddenly boring wasn’t looking so bad. In fact, it was looking pretty good. In fact, it was looking down-right AWESOME. This picture was taken right before we loaded the van to depart […]
The Fine Line…
So, can someone just define the fine line of child abuse, once and for all?? Seriously, put down the phone in your panicked call to the authorities and hear me out…what exactly constitutes abuse? As in, if your 5 mo. old daughter is screaming/crying/fussing at the top of her little lungs for several hours on […]
Oh. No. He. Didn’t.
One night/morning over the holidays, we got home from our travels at 3am. After finally falling asleep around 4:30am, I woke up early with the baby to let my husband sleep in. Rocking only a couple hours of sleep, I was beyond exhausted. So when my husband volunteered to run errands with the baby in […]
The Bath
I celebrated my husband’s last day off work before returning to work by taking a bath. I know many of you, especially those with young kids, might not know what this is. Let me explain–that large empty basin-like thing in your bathroom?? No? Don’t have time to go look? Just trust me on this one, […]
